1 Chronicles 11:17-19

Amplified Bible, Classic Edition

¹⁹ And said, My God forbid that I should do this thing. Shall I drink the blood of these men who have put their lives in jeopardy? For at the risk of their lives they brought it. So he would not drink it. These things did these three mighty men.
